    Luxman P700u Headphone Amplifier Thread

    Seems that PriceJapan is selling some Luxman products including the P-700u and DA-06. Of course they're 100V only, but they're throwing in a voltage transformer for 8,800 yen. Still cheaper overall than what I see on eBay. Are these units any good and has anyone here tried them out recently?

    Quote: You made me think of computer cases when it comes to OEM products. Lian Li cases come to mind with minimalist looks, but premium price tags. Wish I could see the LAu in person at a meet, but it's hard enough to get 6k to buy it even with my current job which is only temporary work.

    Quote: Can't wait to hear your opinions on it. So what headphones and DAC will you be using with the LAu? I know many people find it incredibly hard to justify spending 6K on the LAu (especially when people have to convince their spouses or put down most of their hard-earned money), but I...

    So what headphone amps are directly competing with the LAu (besides features and price)? Also what DACs will work well with the LAu? I know NAD M51 works well with the LAu while the ODAC sounds really harsh when paired with the LAu.

    Quote: I'm curious about the Luxman P-700u since I could only find them on Amazon, eBay, and TTVJ. This will be interesting to hear which is the better headphone amp: LAu or P-700u.

    Quote: So are you going to use the Stax for gaming and music listening? That's a decent amount of money for a electrostatic headphone & electrostatic amp combo.

    Quote: You seem to enjoy the Stax headphone and electrostatic amp. Wish I got money to get them, but I need a steady job with good pay for that since my job is on and off at irregular frequencies.

    Quote: That's great to hear then. I know the LAu will be a great solid-state headphone amp. Just need good headphones and a good DAC to go with the LAu.

    Quote: Maybe "harsh" is a better word to use? Still, the LAu does reveal how sources sound when paired with the right DAC and headphones. It makes me curious about the LAu being a great performing solid-state headphone amp against some great tube amps.

    Nice. The LAu works well with the NAD M51, which is the DAC I'm after. Can't believe the Mytek and ODAC sound awful with the LAu which shows how inferior those 2 DACs are with a few sources.

    Quote: I hope Cavalli Audio isn't commericialized, but still the same company that develops their headphone amps with interest and passion. I know their products are still considered niche, but audio-minded people appreciate what Cavalli Audio has to offer.

    Ah, well if the products are successful overseas then Cavalli Audio can recoup their losses, expand into other countries, and develop or improve their headphone amps.
